Project Management Institute Reviews 

I completed the online test preparation for the new PMP exam and found it to be very useful for understanding PM concepts and setting expectations for how the test is conducted.

I had a beautiful experience

I took the exam on 08/13/2026. The exam is unnecessarily long. 180 questions over 4 hours is ridiculous. You should be able to assess my knowledge in half the time.
The first break is after the first 10 questions which makes no sense.
I though the quality and difficulty of the questions were adequate and appropriately peppered throughout the test.
I'm happy to have gone through this and grown from my experience and I wish to never do this again.

PMI offers an abundance of resources to prepare for your certification. There are also many opportunities for learning about current methodologies and emerging technologies. The help you connect to industry and community. It felt like a one-stop shop to all things project management. From the first application to the communication delivery, I felt confident.

Helpful customer service and easy to use website

Due to technical issues on my exam day, I couldn’t start my exam (online/ proctor closed the exam window for some reasons during check in time while I was uploading my ID). I was deeply upset as i was prepared. They gave me a retake opportunity with old study materials. Very well understanding the test taker’s situation. This time I took it in test center and I passed

Thought the test was challenging but fair if the proper amount of study and preparation is done. Now hoping to leverage the certification for more appealing job opportunities!

I had a really good experience with the PMP exam. The platform was easy to navigate, the instructions were clear, and the overall process was smooth. The new exam format was challenging, but I had no issues navigating through the questions or using the scheduled breaks. I’m very excited and grateful to have passed my PMP! Overall, a great experience with PMI.

Instructions and path were straightforward and fair.

Easy to use, challenging questions. No doubt why they are the leader in PM certifications.

The exam prep course worked fine with my schedule, was clear and pertinent to the knowledge needed for the exam. Would update the course to reflect the changes that were made this year.

I feel like the test was extremely challenging but at the same time I was forced to challenge myself to prepare for it.

Awesome experience and well worth the value.

Great organization with very useful tools for team building as well as project management.

My experience with the Project Management Institute has been extremely positive. I recently completed the PMP® certification process and found the experience challenging, structured, and professionally rewarding. The preparation strengthened my understanding of project leadership, stakeholder engagement, risk management, Agile practices, and delivering business value. The certification process required significant commitment, but earning the PMP® made that effort worthwhile. I appreciate the global recognition and professional standards PMI brings to the project management profession, and I look forward to continuing my professional development as a PMP® credential holder.

PMI is all about making money, so some of the website is not transparent. PMBOK 8 is not a useful reference book, boring to read, and has confusing things (eg configuration management has two meanings). There are many 35 hour courses out there with low quality that may not cover the exam well. Pmp Study Hall mock exams are not realistic to the real exam. It is full of subtle Expert questions with dubious or provably incorrect answers.

My overall experience was great. I purchased the practice questions and it helped me understand how the questions would be asked. I also attended courses on Udemy that was really great.
Application process was easy. I did my application before it changed and it was a bit different but easy when you know how to put your projects in place.
Overall experience was great

I enjoyed the whole examination. Tested my knowledge. Well done

I really disliked receiving one of my two breaks 10 questions into the exam. I wasn’t in my chair for 15 minutes. My next and only break came at question 95. You do the math.. I had to come back and answer 85 questions more questions without a break. This does not make any sense and made the experience painful.
